Default URGENT: Issue with 2007 bi-xenon headlights...

I just picked them up last night and installed today. Realized that the drivers side light was aimed too low, tried to adjust it and it did not move. I then noticed that the light was really low in the projector, so I ended up taking off the back cover and noticed that a support arm was broken. This is the arm that is attached to the adjuster (reason why it was not adjusting). Is there any type of glue that I can use to glue this together that will be safe to use on this (the piece is plastic -not metal). I have pictures below!

Please advise, I am trying to complete this tonight, and will more likely have to run to a hardware store.

Thanks in advance.

You think that would do the job, or should I try to take it to someone to fix it.

i dont know if you think your capable of doing then go for it but then its a b*tch if you mess up. the jb weld stuff is super strong and if apply correctly, then it would do wonders.

or if you know someone that know how to plastic weld then let them try it.

yeah if you can line it up then just dab some jb weld alongside the crack and let it sit for 24 hrs then i think you can adjust the beam.

good luck
